Fig. 1.
Results of multiple correspondence analysis illustrating associations between the geographical origin of wild boars, wild boar density (WBD) in individual provinces, and serological categories of antibodies against Aujeszky’s disease virus (ADV), Chlamydia spp. (CHL) and C. burnetii (CB-I for phase-I and CB-II for phase-II antigens). Locations of blue (variable-representing) points close to each other indicate stronger associations, whereas locations farther apart indicate weaker or no associations. Red (inequal quadrant) outlines – groups of categories with similar profiles; green (central) outline – variables with low discriminatory power and no clear association with other variables; av – average; Prov – province; MP – Małopolskie; PK – Podkarpackie; SL – Śląskie; ZP – Zachodniopomorskie; WBD – wild boar density
